Hello, John Demetriou here. Remember me? I sometimes write for this site. Yes, indeed, apologies for my 'BEST BLOG IN THE WORLD' absence of late. Don't take it personally, though. I've been laying off the internet in general the last week or so because it (like most facets to modern life) has been poisoning me and taking over my life.
However, like a lover of good Ale, I'm over my hangover and I'm up for a stiff sample of the good stuff. I.e. my brilliant writing. So stop what you're doing, put the coffee down, the wankerchief, the porn mag, the cigarette, what the fuck ever, and pay close attention.
Here I shall pen a few thoughts in pointed attack against the evil, pernicious forces of social democracy.
For those with a long standing political inclination, you may look at the title of this piece and consider it somewhat reminiscent of certain words uttered by a certain former Prime Minister of Britain. Indeed, for it was back in 1999 that Blair spoke of his desire to lead the charge "...that defeats the forces of conservatism".
It is well worth clicking the link to read the speech Blair gave to the Labour Party conference in 1999 in full. For it is stunningly clear what a complete lie the New Labour project was and is and always will be. The lie of the Third Way. The myth that still even now some people accept as fact. 'Change the leader' (Brown), they say, 'then we can beat them'. As if Labour and social democratic policies still hold credence, still maintain any respectability or validity. As if theirs isn't a joke politics based on a busted flush and an exposed fallacy.
More-so, as if the Conservative Party under Cameron is remotely different or remotely conservative or right wing.
My favourite part of Anthony Blair's speech was this bit. Remarkably portentous and prescient, given it was made before his mate Bush came to power and a full two years before 9/11 and the ridiculous War on Terror:
"In the last few months alone, I've been compared (by Hague's Tories) to Hitler, Mussolini and Milosevic. Maybe they think I should be indicted for war crimes - the crime of leading the Labour Party into government, and disturbing the natural order of things."
Indeed, Anthony. Indeed.
Ask any New Labour supporter (if you can find one) or anti-right wing social democrat (usually found within the corridors of public sector organisations that have enriched them) what that party has achieved since 1997, and they will invariably point at this.
This is from experience. They can't trumpet the old Prudence Brown strong on the economy horseshite anymore. Even the 'Real PM' (Alistair Campbell) would be unable to spin that bollocks to the public now. They can't talk about unemployment, or education, or health, or transport or crime, because these areas have demonstrably worsened since Major left power in 1997.
They can't talk about 'child poverty' or homelessness, because all that is still a serious issue. They can't talk about Robin Cook's ethical foreign policy anymore, because that turned out to be a despicable lie. Labour have been huge fans of the arms trade, regardless of the nature of the buyer, and they started two nasty wars under some outrageous liberal interventionist-meets-Neo Conservative bout of madness.
So it's about Tax Credits. A system which, to heap insult to bizarre and callous injury, advances and extends the welfare state so that it is a mechanism that not only provides an unaffordable and impracticable system of social security for the poor, but an incentive scheme for lower middle and middle class women and 'families' to procreate - at the expense of single people and childless couples of working age.
People like me, then.
Boy, did I fume earlier on this evening whilst watching Channel 4 News's broadcast about 'Mumsnet'. The arrogance, the sheer fucking impudence, of these fucking shit bags was absolutely staggering. Truly mind blowing. Well, it would be for people with a brain left in their skulls and an existence based on more than the consumption of 'X-Factor', Carling Extra Cold and socialist lies.
For those who didn't see it, a very brief run through of the news skit goes thus: C4 news interviews left wing, state-addicted mothers sitting around a child care or community centre, or some such fucking joke-hole funded by the £500 a month I pay in Income Tax. The vox pops reveals that most of the mothers are Labour Party supporters, who are wavering and considering voting Tory because they are unsure whether Labour will provide them with sufficient entitlements.
People who hitherto were die hard Labour voters are considering, for the first time, *pious gasp and shock* voting for Cameron. All this got a local sitting Labour MP a bit wobbly and various mums sat about indignant, wondering who will actually do the most for them.
Let's have a look at a few underlying premises here, shall we? Fundamental assumptions that were not, for obvious reasons, picked up on by C4 or indeed anyone in the public eye who comments on things like Tax Credits, mums, the welfare state and cheeky fuckers after my money.
Firstly, the two parties are so close, life long Labour voters are considering a change.
Secondly, David Cameron woos these people, yet still declares his party as the Conservative Party and himself as conservative.
Thirdly, it goes as unchallenged fact that moneys and resources taken from people like me, at law, under threat of jail, in order to provide 'entitlements' to women who want to breed is good and right.
Except there is a problem here: there are no such entitlements. It is not an entitlement. To decide to have children, yet to not afford such a choice and to heap the burden of financial responsibility onto the tax payer, is not just sickening, wrong, immoral and staggeringly rude, it is parasitic.
Did I agree to Tax Credits? Do I agree with this bizarre Mussolini-esque fecundity programme to pointlessly boost the population of the Motherland?
Another jowly faced, one-time far-left socialist, turned-fascist cunt, who used authoritarian policies to artificially boost the population of his country through pro-natal policies.You see, I have no choice in all this. If you are like me, you don't either. If you don't pay your taxes, you go to jail and everything fucks up in your life. You lose the lot. Gone. Yet if you do pay, then you will be deprived of certain choices.
Take me for instance. I scrape by, I have people to support, shit to maintain. I pay around £500 a month in direct tax, which incidentally goes towards a pot of money slightly less than the annual social security budget.
That's £500 a month I can't use for things I want and need to do. I need to replace my old car for example, but that's something I shunt to the back of the priority list because I can't afford it. My liberty, every day, is clearly infringed, because the State forcibly extorts large amounts of money from me in order to pay for outrageous projects I don't have a say in.
Labour won the election in 1997 and subsequent elections, yet they did so using an undemocratic two party system which effectively means the people have little or no choice. A system that works within a centralised pattern of government, where Westminster happily, whoever is in Number 10, grows and feeds from the Serfs (us) in order to expand Whitehall and bribe voters for electoral advantage.
So when I see the News, and I am faced with a bunch of grumbling fucking women looking at which socially democratic party will provide them with most of my hard earned money so that they can make choices I cannot personally afford because I work for my lot, I get angry.
Very fucking angry.
I didn't put a picture of Mussolini up here for a joke. I looked into it and there are clear parallels between Mussolini's 'Battle for Birth's' and Blair/Brown's disgusting, parasite-feeding Tax Credit system.
According to the Wikipedia source on Mussolini's plan:
"The Battle for Births began in 1927: Mussolini introduced a number of measures to encourage reproduction, with an objective of increasing the population from 40 million to 60 million by 1950. Loans were offered to married couples, with part of the loan cancelled for each new child, and any married man who had more than six children was made exempt from taxation."
The only difference between Mussolini's plan and Labour's, is that Mussolini's plan for a more fecund, populous nation was based on a specific aim to expand the size, scope and influence of a strong Italy. At least he had a fucking half understandable purpose. Labour's Tax Credit scheme is nothing more than an immoral, cynical ploy to bribe people and expand the Labour Party electoral base.
I guess there is a second difference. Mussolini favoured married couples. Labour doesn't care about marriage, because that's a conservative and stuffy old Tory notion that belongs in the dustbin, so they have decided to use their corrupt system of bribery to help break apart yet something else that worked quite well for eons until they came along to fuck everything up.
Was this part of what these bastards meant by destroying the forces of conservatism?
Well, it must have worked, because they have managed to make the leader of the Tory Party just like them.
I'll end this piece with one final salvo in my fresh battle against the Forces of Social Democracy. Something I said in a piece a few months back.
People who deliberately use or manipulate the welfare state system to enrich themselves to others' cost, are nothing less than parasites and leeches who use the State's 'License to Thieve' to pay for lifestyle choices they themselves should work for.

Welcome back.
Fuck them all.
"If you want to have kids, you fucking pay for them."
I was fucking stunned by some little cowbag on Twitter the other day. She said: "id rather have brown in power then fuck face cameron. Because when he comes in people like me will be well and truly fucked"
She really, honestly believes that the buttered new potato is going to change stuff and make her life worse.
And even more horrifying, she really believes that she's entitled to what she gets, it's just nasty Tories who stop her from living in a land of milk and honey. The money obviously grows on trees somewhere!
Well, miss cowbag: I really hope that you are well and truly fucked, because for the last 12 years, I've been the bloke who has been well and truly fucked along with every other motherfucking taxpayer -- and I'm fucking sick of it.
I love the very concept of being 'fucked', by virtue of somebody not supporting a policy by which moneys are appropriated from one set of people and redistributed to another set of people deemed worthy.
it's a bit like me saying "I want to make it to see Spurs play. I don't have a car. If my dad doesn't pick me up and take me to White Hart Lane, then he is an arsehole who will have fucked me over"
Ask anyone to support that statement, and unless they are total fucking lunatics, they will likely tell me to get off my fucking arse and catch a bus or a train there myself.
But no, according to Socialist Logic TM, my old man is wholly responsible in this instance, and unless he stops what he is doing, comes to my house, takes me to North London and picks me up again after, promptly, he is guilty of being a cunt.
Additionally, according to social democratic wisdom and accepted norms in Britain, if my Dad were to complain at my treatment of him and object to being bossed about, he'd be an extremist. A loon. A dogmatic, unreasonable bastard.
Of course, in reality, Cameron is the sad old mug sat behind the wheel of his Jag, trundling happily up the road to pick up his indolent, impudent, arrogant, recalcitrant and unchided son with a full tank of petrol ready to burn.
Burn, baby, burn.
Wild applause, JD (though I didn't put down my cig, hope you don't mind).
I was aware, when I had my kids, exactly the financial responsibilities involved, and it guts me to see others just pumping out future fucking morons without a care. Worse, that my well-mannered kids have to share a playground with the offspring of idle Labour-funded unibrows.
BTW, I reckon you might hate me for this, but you share an admirable philosophy with DK in this regard.
Feel the love? ;-)
I 100% agree with you here. Benefits are not an entitlement, they are not a right. They are a gift that should be appreciated and never abused. The whole system needs to be overhauled. I found myself on benefits back in 2004 when my marriage failed and I was left homeless with 3 young children. I would never, ever consider having another child. People on benefits should recieve no more money if they continue to have children with out the funds to support them. I believe that there should be a welfare state as there will always be case of people falling on hard times but it needs to be tightened up, seriously. If a couple are both unemployed only one should be able to claim. If a woman is already on benefits and finds herself pregnant, tough shit. People that want to work they way out of the benefits trap should go to the top of the social housing list instead of being dumped in private rent. No one under the age of 18 should be able to claim any benefits at all, be they unemployed or pregnant. The parents should be forced to foot the bill. Just 20 years ago the idea of being a single mum on benefits or a doley was a shameful thing, these days it is a career choice and a very lucrative one for some. At great cost to others. It is wrong and it needs to change.
Mummy x
Oh and absent parents should be made to contribute to their childrens upbringing. Deduction of earnings orders should be issued via the tax man and tough shit if they can't afford it. My ex earns a lot of money and yet there is no system in place to make him pay, that's why Tax Credits were bought in in the first place. The CSA failed and nothing has been done to replace the system.
"If you want to have kids, you fucking pay for them."
Wholeheartedly agree, great article.
You may be misjudging Mumsnet - the majority of their members are degree-qualified (and not just Media Studies graduates or Sociologists).
They are not chavs on a sink estate.
Just like all arrogant liberal elitist bunch of cunts, mumsnet champions all parasites who keep the socialist redistribution of wealth project alive and kicking.
Don't know if "fascist" and "socialist" are really mutually exclusive. In fact Mussolini is probably the example that proves otherwise. Well, him and Hitler I suppose.
